Eternal Sacred King

2267 Killing Midway

It had been more than a hundred days since the end of the 10,000 Year Meet.

The battle of the Earth Ranking had long spread through the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom and even all over Divine Firmament Mainland, causing countless cultivators to discuss it fervently.

When Su Zimo and the others left the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom and walked on the long street of the capital, they could clearly sense the excited gazes of many cultivators in the capital.

Many cultivators even had looks of admiration in their eyes.

“Look, that’s Su Zimo!”

“I thought that he was a malicious fiend born with three heads and six arms to be able to kill so many people. To think that he’s a refined scholar.”

“That’s right. If no one mentioned it, who would have guessed that he was the top of the Earth Ranking?”

Many cultivators stopped in their tracks and discussed softly, looking over.

Every 10,000 years, there would be a top of the Earth Ranking.

However, none of the predecessors could produce such shocking results and make such a name for themselves!

He killed 18 peak Earth Immortals singlehandedly, including a reincarnated Perfected Immortal.

Even after consecutive battles, he could defeat the second reincarnated Perfected Immortal and obtain the top of the Earth Ranking.

The battle of the Earth Ranking this time round was unprecedented!

“I heard that Su Zimo came from an ordinary background and came from the lower worlds.”

“So what? A group of paragons and monster incarnates of the upper world and even two reincarnated Perfected Immortals became his stepping stones!”

“The Divine Firmament Immortal Meet is in less than 10,000 years. I wonder if he’ll have a chance to be on the Heaven Ranking.”

“If the Heaven Ranking opens up, there’ll probably be another bloodbath!”

“Yun Ting has already issued a personal challenge and there will definitely be a battle between the two of them. That battle will probably be the most eye-catching battle in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain in hundreds of thousands of years!”

“Fufu, Su Zimo has offended so many people. We’ll see if he can survive till the Divine Firmament Immortal Meet.”

Someone sneered with a disdainful expression.

Su Zimo listened to the clamor around him with an indifferent expression and did not take it to heart.

Everyone from Heaven and Earth Academy was smug as well.

In this 10,000 Year Meet, Heaven and Earth Academy was in the limelight and occupied three spots in the top ten of the Earth Ranking.

Su Zimo’s sudden appearance shocked everyone.

However, Liu Ping’s meteoric rise and obtaining third on the Earth Ranking was a pleasant surprise!

If Ye Fei had not died this time round, Heaven and Earth Academy would have been the biggest winner!

Before long, Su Zimo and the others arrived at the teleportation formation in the capital, prepared to activate it and return to Heaven and Earth Academy.

“Zimo, Scarlet Rainbow and Liu Ping, after returning to the academy, the three of you will follow me to meet the Grand Elder.”

Elder Zhong said with a smile, “The three of you have already reached the Heaven Essence realm. You can join the inner sect now.”

In Heaven and Earth Academy, the promotion of cultivators and the appointment of various positions in the academy were handled by the Grand Elder.

Su Zimo and the other two had all entered the Heaven Immortal realm in the Parasol Tree Secret Ground. This time round, they became famous in the battle of the Earth Ranking and it was only logical for the three of them to join the inner sect.

As they said that, everyone stepped into the teleportation formation.

The formation patterns shone bedazzlingly and a gigantic beam of light burst forth, enveloping everyone from Heaven and Earth Academy.

Immediately after, everyone felt a tremendous tug and disappeared from the teleportation formation.

The Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom was extremely far from Heaven and Earth Academy. However, with the teleportation formation, they could return in about dozens of breaths.

Everyone shuttled through the spatial tunnel. Even for Grade 9 Heaven Immortals, they would lose their five senses and could not sense the passage of time.

Suddenly!

Everyone from Heaven and Earth Academy shuddered and their five senses recovered.

“We’ve returned to Heaven and Earth Academy?”

“Something doesn’t seem right. Where is this?”

Everyone looked around but could only see darkness, as though they were still in the spatial tunnel and had not left.

“Did something happen during the teleportation process?”

Elder Zhong frowned and murmured.

“Could the teleportation formation have been destroyed?”

Su Zimo asked.

“No.”

Elder Zhong shook his head.

Under normal circumstances, the teleportation formation had already been activated successfully and everyone had entered the spatial tunnel. Even if someone destroyed the teleportation formation in the capital of Yan Yang, it would not affect them.

Right then, a tremendous might descended!

The terror of that might was unimaginable and everyone could not resist at all!

The difference was too great!

Compared to that tremendous might, everyone from Heaven and Earth Academy were like ants!

Right on the heels of that, killing intent surged over!

Everyone in Heaven and Earth Academy, Su Zimo included, felt a strong aura of death, as though they would die the next moment!

“What happened?”

“Is that a Perfected Immortal?”

In Heaven and Earth Academy, some cultivators were terrified and their voices trembled.

Su Zimo had a grim expression and remained silent.

He had experienced such a powerful might and terrifying aura personally when he ascended to the upper world and it was still fresh in his memories!

That pressure was definitely not from a Perfected Immortal!

The elders of Heaven and Earth Academy turned pale.

Elder Zhong’s heart sank as he shook his head. “An expert who can release such a might has probably surpassed the Perfected Immortal realm…”

Surpassing the Perfected Immortal realm meant that…

Everyone’s eyes widened in shock.

Could it be an Immortal King?

At that thought, everyone’s eyes revealed a hint of despair.

At the same time, many cultivators understood that only an Immortal King would have such methods to stop them from exiting the spatial tunnel!

However, no one could understand why an Immortal King would attack them.

Among them, the strongest were only Grade 9 Heaven Immortals. There was no way they could come into contact with Immortal Kings—why would an expert of that level appear?

Furthermore, they were from Heaven and Earth Academy—which Immortal King would attack them?

“Senior, please show mercy!”

Elder Zhong tried his best to maintain his composure and took a deep breath. “We’re from Heaven and Earth Academy. Is there any misunderstanding?”

Nobody replied. However, that terrifying might still enveloped everyone’s heads.

Furthermore, the killing intent was intensifying!

In fact, everyone felt that they could die here at any moment!

Su Zimo narrowed his eyes coldly.

He had a feeling that the expert hiding in the dark was most likely here for him!

However, he could not determine where the expert came from.

It was unlikely to be King Yun You.

Given King Yun You’s personality, he would definitely not hide it and would most likely appear directly.

If it wasn’t King Yun You, who could it be?

An Immortal King invited by Zither Immortal Meng Yao?

Or was it an Immortal King on the side of Prince Yuan Zuo or the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom?

Perhaps the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom?

Su Zimo had snatched five treasures from the Nine Heavens and absorbed a large amount of life essence from the ancient Parasol Tree in the Parasol Tree Secret Ground while offending Xie Tianhong.

It might be possible if the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom wanted to kill him!

If an Immortal King-level expert attacked, he would not be able to defend even if he summoned all four Sacred Souls on the Hell Suppression Tripod.
